Finally, I own my dream car!

I M STIG · 04-09-2011, 06:15 PM

So most of you probably have never seen me post on here, I'm Josh. I've lurked from time to time, but now I'm about to become a full member, because just a few days ago I traded my 2008 Bullitt Mustang and my 2005 MINI Cooper S and purchased a 2009 E90 M3.

She's Jerez Black over Silver Novillo extended leather and Anthracite wood trim. The options are 6MT, iDrive, EDC, Premium Package 2, Convenience Package, Premium Sound, HD Radio, fold down rear seats, heated seats, BMW Assist with bluetooth, 19" wheels, and I think that's about it, haha.

Anyway, here she is:

The RawAutos license plate is for my website.

Also, maybe you guys can help me out with this. I took the car in yesterday to have satellite radio put in, because the previous owner didn't have it added. They told me today that they can't put it in my car because BMW no longer sells it for my year car?! The service adviser wasn't sure as to why... The only things I could find online had to do with the "Acquiring" issue that happened last year. Could that be the reason why?

As well as taking it in for the satellite radio, my usb port in the center console doesn't work... They've replaced it and tried fixing it but can't understand why it's not working. Anyone have a reason for that issue?

Nice! Sorry about the satellite I have no idea.... I don't think its something that is "put in", it is just integrated with iDrive. Either way, you can always add aftermarket satellite. But your car is one of the first I've seen with the silver leather interior... its very cool actually, really brightens the inside of the car.

Congrats!!! Hope you love her as much as I love my 09 Jerez sedan.

If you're trying to connect your iPhone/iPod to the USB port it won't work for your model year. You'll need the 6FL cable.

Nice! Very nice...

I have that cable, and it's not working... It's a pain in the ass, if I'm honest. They've replaced the port and have tried doing some other stuff, they said, but nothing's working. Who knows...

Thanks for all the love, everyone!

It's Sycamore Anthracite to be fully correct. So both of us are right, haha.

Thanks, man. It is always nice, isn't it? I'm very lucky that at almost 25 (Birthday in May), I'm able to get a car I've been dreaming of since I was 10 when my brother first showed the E36 M3 and its "Best Handling Car In America" tagline that Car and Driver gave it all those years ago.

Congrats! Your car lives up to your name! I hope you have a great summer ahead of you. Open the windows and get high on that sweet sounding engine ;-)
